Once humans are extinct, cockroaches will still exist in the world. But as long as humans are still here, they can do a lot to get rid of cockroaches from their homes. If you’re dealing with a cockroach infestation in your home, there are certain ways of dealing with it. What you must do first, though, is identify which type of cockroaches have invaded your home. The majority of people just assume all cockroaches are the same but there actually 4 different kinds of cockroaches that live indoors and are considered to be pests. In order to treat this problem properly, you must know which of these 4 cockroach types you’re dealing with.

Do cockroaches make noise?

There are some cockroaches that generate noises. These noises might include a chirping sound or a soft clicking noise. These are the most common noises of a cockroach. However, some cockroaches make louder noises like the hissing sound that comes from a Madagascar hissing cockroach. This type of cockroach is considered to be one of the largest pest species around. Obviously, they’re called a “hissing” cockroach because that is the sound they make through the tiny openings located on their sides, which are known as spiracles. Any time a hissing cockroach is attracted to another cockroach or is fighting or threatened, it will make these hissing sounds.

There are cockroaches in Australia that produce noises as well. These noises sound like acoustic vibrations, which are made when they rub their wings and legs together. The purpose of these sounds is specifically for attracting mates. But it is not believed that these sounds are a type of vocalization that cockroaches use between each other. Like most insects, cockroaches communicate with their pheromones.

Common cockroaches, like the German and American cockroach species, typically don’t make any noises. Some people have claimed these pests make a clicking sound, but they are usually confusing cockroaches with beetles. On the other hand, large cockroach populations can create sounds because all their wings are fluttering together. This will produce a crunch sound as the wings are smashed into each other.

Are there antennas on cockroaches?

Yes, there are. Cockroaches are considered to be part of an order of insects called Blattaria. This order of insects has more than 4,000 species but only a few of them are classified as pests. Since these species are able to survive in a human environment, scientists often use them in laboratories for their biological studies. The American cockroach, known as Periplaneta Americana, is the species most widely studied for better understanding the antennal system of insects.

The antenna of a cockroach has three parts to it. The first two parts, the pedicel and scape, are attached to the body which enable it to move around. The third part is the flagellum which has 150 segments to it.

How the antenna works?

When you have a cockroach under observation, one thing you’ll notice is their antennae are swung up and down, and side to side. This is how cockroaches sense their surrounding environment and make a decision on which direction to move toward. When cockroaches touch something, their flagellum can detect the object’s chemical consistency as well as its temperature and various other information about it. Meanwhile, the pedicel and scape are responsible for determining the direction and solidity of the object.

The cockroach likes to maintain the cleanliness of their antennae which is why they pull their antennae down through their mandibles. Basically, this is the cockroach’s way of grooming themselves and keeping their antennae hairs clean. That way, they’ll have a better ability to sense objects because their antennae will be more accurate.
